Is John Boehner in trouble?

Over at Politico.com, they have a long story looking at how much damage was done to House minority leader John Boehner, R-West Chester, after two-thirds of Republicans rejected his call for support for the Wall Street bailout bill. Boehner passionately urged his caucus to vote for the bill, calling on them to think of the country and saying these were the tough votes they were sent to Washington to make.

Following the stunning defeat of the bill, some are asking whether Boehner can retain his leadership position and restore credibility with his troops.
